Meanwhile, the Coalition for Jewish Values (CJV), which represents over 1,000 traditional rabbis in matters of public policy, commended Israel’s decision to refuse entry to the two congresswomen.

Both congresswomen are sponsors of a resolution claiming that boycotting Israel is ‘pursuit of civil and human rights’ while comparing Israel to Nazi Germany. Their hatred will not be cured by meetings with the Palestinian Authority, which generously supports those who murder Jews.

While organizations like Never Again Action have been protesting around immigrants’ rights and detention conditions, some Jews and Jewish organizations don’t feel the same way. “Their misuse of Jewish values and identity is truly painful,” said Rabbi Yaakov Menken, managing director of the Coalition for Jewish Values, in a statement emailed to the Sun Sentinel.

Coalition for Jewish Values condemns the protest – Rabbi Steven Pruzansky, eastern regional vice president of the coalition, called the planned protest “offensive.”

A Jewish organization condemned Never Again Action on Friday for plans to protest outside the headquarters of The Geo Group, a private prison company. Coalition for Jewish Values said the event is “a trivialization of the Holocaust and utterly contrary to authentic Jewish values.”

Until June 2019, everyone understood that comparing genocidal Nazi death camps to anything short of genocidal death camps was despicable, and had any right-wing politician made such a comparison, all these shofar-blowing justice warriors would have (quite correctly) joined us in strong condemnation.

The Coalition for Jewish Values (CJV), representing over 1000 traditional rabbis in matters of public policy, today condemned the planned “Never Again Action Noise Rally” intended to disrupt operations on Monday at a federal contractor that helps process undocumented immigrants entering the United States.

“Several generations of values-free education has produced too many values-free children, in which life itself has little value or meaning.”

“We should also focus upon the loss of values which has plagued America for generations,” says Rabbi Steven Pruzansky of the Coalition for Jewish Values.
